The Great Northern Saints

England’s North has a great tradition of Saints, from St Bede the Venerable, one of England's greatest scholars, to the Northern Martyrs of the 16th and 17th centuries. Saints associated with the North east include Aidan, Bede, Cuthbert, Hilda, Cedd, Chad, Oswald, Bega, Ninian and Oswin.

During our pilgrimage, we will visit places connected with these great Saints and other sites enriched with Celtic meaning and Christian history such as Durham, Holy Island, Whitby, Lastingham and Monkwearmouth.
